Phil's POV
I was sitting in the living room playing on Sonic the Hedgehog 4. I was attempting to play the Impending Doom Stage on the Mad Gear Zone and I was trying to see I could play it better than the last time I played it. You know the time when me and Dan played it and I was constantly failing at it. But I didn't seem to be doing that well. I think it might have been because I've had something on my mind a while now and it seems to be really bothering me.
I don't know why but I just can't seem to stop thinking about Dan. There's just something about him what I can't seem to get off my mind. Maybe I should tell him. I dunno, what if he starts hating me for what I tell him. I have to tell him at some point. I can't keep hiding it forever. I started to have this feeling in my stomach. Why can't I bring myself to tell him. I've had these feelings for him for like 3 years now. We've been living together as best friends for nearly a year and a half now. Surely now should be the time to tell him.
*The next day*
Ok I've decided, I think today's the day where I'm going to tell Dan. Once again I had that strange feeling in my stomach. It came to the afternoon of that day. I could hear Dan in his room. He was busy editing of of his new videos which he was going to upload to Youtube later that night. I knocked on his door. Seconds later I heard him say "Yes, Phil. Is that you?"
I replied back saying "Yes it is. Can I talk with you about something" Dan replied back saying
"Of course just come in."
I walked into Dan's room after hearing what he said. I could see him on his Mac busy editing his new video for Youtube. Lot's of thoughts were rushing through my head at this very moment. I just didn't know what to think.
"So Phil what was it you were wanting to tell me. Is it important" Dan said to me. At this point I knew it was important with what I wanted to tell but my mind waned to tell him no. I was sat on his bed, just so that I wouldn't end up standing while telling him.
"You see Dan, we've been best friends for a long time right"
"Yes we have. So..."
"Well for the past 3 years, I sort of think our friendship has been very strong" I was stuttering as I was talking here due to me being so nervous about what I was saying. I was gripping onto my stomach with my face feeling slightly warm. Why couldn't I just talk properly at this point. I didn't like this feeling going through me one bit.
"Dan, I ...I ..." At this point stopped myself and I just started to cry. I was so close to bringing myself to saying it and I end up breaking down. I was was just sat on Dan's bed with my head in my knees. There's only a few times in which I've cried in my life. But never have I cried a much as this before.
Dan just looked, put his arm around me and said "Phil are ok, what's wrong, why are you crying?"
"Dan, I...I...I love you. I have felt like this since we became best friend 3 years ago" I replied back to him while still having the tears roll down my face.
Dan just looked at me and at this point he started to cry. I stopped crying and I asked the same questions as what Dan had asked me. Dan just looked at me and said. "I love you to Phil."
At this point, I didn't know what to say. I Did I really just hear what Dan said. I thought I was the one being silly for having feelings for him. But it turns out I wasn't just being silly. "So does that mean..." Dan stopped me from saying the rest of my sentence.
"Yes Phil. Yes it does." He said smiling to me.
I smiled back at him and gave a hug and a cheeky little kiss that I knew he would never forget.
